Expectations in Check

Unrealistic expectations can cause immense stress, leaving you feeling like you’re always falling short. Whether it’s constant pressure to deliver at high levels or demands that don’t match the resources you have, these expectations create a sense of failure and chronic anxiety. You might feel overextended, undervalued, or even burned out trying to meet goals that simply aren’t feasible. This strategy focuses on addressing those unrealistic expectations head-on by setting clear boundaries, communicating openly with your manager or team, and redefining success in more achievable terms.
